Foot Massage for Toothache Pain-or My Husband's Magic Hands

So - anyone ever hear of severe tooth pain lasting for three full days, and then disappearing because of a FOOT massage? I'm talking, moaning, groaning, grasping of the jaw, ear, and forehead, Aleve popping (appropriate with the label - IMPORTANT), Anbesol, liquor swishing... and eventually a crying breakdown...

I opted for the couch tonight. My honey needs his sleep, too - but just before he went to bed, he asked if I needed anything and I suggested he rub some lotion on my feet.

Aside from the soothing relaxation, the excruciating pain in my jaw went away.  I have an abcessed wisdom tooth, so I know the pain will come back (the dentist will take care of it - soon), but I cannot describe how wonderful it feels to feel NORMAL for a while.

A basic foot massage. Nothing fancy.

Heaven.

I'm getting some sleep tonight.
